Double Acting Positioner<br />

<strong>Installation</strong> <strong>and</strong> Set Up<br />

Double Acting Positioner<br />

The Double Acting (DA) relay has a pair of opposed pneumatic outputs. When Output 1<br />

delivers air to one side of the actuator, Output 2 vents air from the opposite side of the<br />

actuator piston. The volume of air trapped in each determines the position of the<br />

actuator.<br />

The Action (ATO or ATC) is applied with respect to Output 1. When Output 1 is<br />

connected to deliver air to extend the actuator, the action is ATC, on a down-seating<br />

valve.<br />

1. Connect Output 1, labeled (I) to the inlet port of the actuator <strong>and</strong> Output 2<br />

labeled (<strong>II</strong>) to the opposing actuator port (see Figure 44).<br />

2. Connect air supply <strong>and</strong> actuator outputs (1⁄4" NPT). Supply pressure is 25 - 150 psi<br />

(1.7 - 10.3 bar) (172 - 1030 kPa). Minimum tubing diameter 1⁄4" (6 mm x 4 mm).<br />
